Ambient Air (Scent) System

Seems like there is an ambient air system in G05 but it is not available in the US. Any hacks? (other than the pine cards )

I have it in my European 45e.

It includes ionization of the air and car scents that requires a module in the glove compartment to insert the cartridge. I presume it will take more than just coding.

It doesn't seem to be an available option to add for US builds. I assume you can get it with Euro delivery.

Try the BMW Natural Air.

In essence they are just upgraded pine cards but all the fragrances are nice and light. They compliment the feel of a BMW very well.

I realize that last part sounds uppity but I personally don't want my car smelling like axe body spray and prefer something more elegant lol.

There is a starter kit that has a vent clip and fragrance stick which lasts about 3 months. I keep two in the car and it always keeps it smelling great.

Hope this helps!

Yup. Had this in my 5 series a few years back. Will grab the starter kit again.
